So late last year in a moment of madness?? I decided to haul myself around 5km with some muddy obstacles for good measure. I managed to persuade two brilliant girls , thank you Emma Kent and Rachel Pitt , to keep me company and so the day approaches!!

I've spent 23 years working with cancer and daily see the rising numbers and the knock on effects for families. However on the positive I've also seen the advances and improvements year on year but it costs money. I'm not asking people to empty their piggy banks for me but if you read this and can spare the cost of a pint?? ( or your weekend treat!) I'd really appreciate it

Canceris happening​ right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life Pretty Muddy to raise money and save lives.
